Junk Brain

This is how my brain works, I see the junk and can see the potential in most things. So here are some pics of what I saw and what I did, I really should take more before pictures! The before photo is on the right or top. Some of these I sold or are for sale and others were for my house.

Shells for my son's nature room. I liked the shape of the frame so out with Joy! lol!

The check out people at the thrift stores must think I am crazy for buying the stuff I do. Ugly, broken, but always cheap!

The seahorse frame was falling apart but it had potential for my other son's room, the sea life room. After taking it apart, I realized the seahorse was just a note card, proof that anything can be art. I broke out the kids' watercolors and changed it from off white to cool blue!

Call me crazy but this little blue butterfly is one of my favorite things I have bought for the house, it was 99 cents!

Dirty, ugly.... meets clean and oh so cute!

I found an elephant for .60 and about 3 of these great chunky frames with strange adhesive on them. Oh my, I should I walked away from the frames, that adhesive was very hard to get off! But I loved the outcome, how about you?

I can do custom projects for you or thrift store shopping for you next treasure!

Proud Thrift Store Junkie Here

Welcome to My Blog

Repurposing is part of who I am! I love redoing things and the hunt for all things interesting and cheap! I've confused everyone by changing my blog and business name from Pretty Purple Treasures, sorry about that!

Check out all my projects and leave me some feedback if you will, thanks!
